Iver's Apprehension
Iver originally planned to stop appearing in front of people before Isabel came back... to be precise, before Isabel presided over the Round Table Conference meeting and announced the resolution to replace the minister.
He didn't want to cause trouble to Isabel, so it was best to have a little more to do with these things.
After all, he didn't really come to seek power and usurp the throne. If he really wanted to do this, there was no need to be hypocritical here... Queen Sophia But it was better to tell him directly, "You can take it for yourself."
Even if Isabel's increasingly tough mind can ignore those gossips, Iver cannot allow them to exist.
The pastoral care of Night Demon Viennes has ended. Now Iver is going to start slowly nurturing Paradox Flame Butterfly in turn, striving to bring her up to the same level as the Night Demon as soon as possible.
As a way to relieve his boredom, Iver picked a few monographs from Yulia's bookshelf. Those are books about the geography, customs and culture of the empire.
Iver plans to concentrate on reading and studying in these two days.
But just when Iver was reading quietly in Queen's study, someone suddenly knocked on the door and came in.
Lily, who was originally standing silently behind Iver, seemed to emerge from the wall, outlining his outline and revealing his body from nothingness.
She walked to the door and whispered to the person at the door for a while. Then he brought the documents in the suitcase to Iver.
"So early?"
Iver was a little surprised.
It's only seven o'clock in the morning. He had just finished his morning exercise with Morning Prayer and had breakfast.
What big deal can happen at this point? Round Table Hall Conference, it probably hasn't started yet at this point.
With doubts, Iver took the file box and tore off the seal to open it.
There were more than one letter lying inside, but the most important one had a silver Dragon Head Seal stamped on it. Iver opened it and saw the brief but important message.
"...Scarlett Emma is here?"
Iver murmured, frowning slightly. "So fast?"
This is not exactly a surprise visit.
Because he has actually received the news.
Yesterday afternoon, news came from the Star Antimony Embassy, saying that Countess Emma would come to Avalon in the near future to discuss "many matters closely related to peace in the next ten years"... But no one expected that the succubus would come so quickly, and she did not bring her team with her.
Iver is keenly aware of the problem.
This put a layer of gloom in his heart.
——If Stibnite Person really intends to have a good talk, they should give an accurate list of visiting personnel and give it to Avalon Ministry of Foreign Affairs for confirmation before finalizing the itinerary. Leave enough preparation time for Avalon.
Although the relationship between Avalon and Xing Antimony has eased a lot, there are still disputes and conflicts in various fields. This cannot be discussed in a short time... Even if she is the first secretary of the current Red Prime Minister, she cannot decide so many departmental matters.
From this point of view, Iver thinks that Stibnite Person does not want to have a good discussion at all.
But the problem is that Iver has basically no knowledge of Countess Emma.
At least Emma didn't make it into this book - because she died directly in the main storyline's background story. Iver knows her name entirely because she died well-known enough.
As the unlucky person who held the world's first [Ouroboros Ring] ceremony, she used her life to teach other people who wanted to copy the ceremony a crucial lesson: be careful, the Tiansi who is pulled down will hit people.
Iver can only infer her identity through other information.
The "Red Phase" and "Black Phase" of the Star Antimony Empire are the two Nameless heroes who helped Valentine I found the country. They have not left their names in history. From public knowledge channels, we can only know that they belong to Path of Love and Path of Transcendence, and Path of Twilight and Path of Adaptation respectively.
And Iver knows a little more.
——For example, the two "First Generation Prime Minister" are actually still alive today.
The red phase is a Child of the Moon whose power is close to Sixth Level. He has been Child of the Moon at least since Giant Kingdom still existed. At the same time, Iver can roughly guess from the CG in the trailer that he is most likely the person who intercepted and killed Meg in the Dream Realm's Promotion Ritual in the original history.
He is the main line BOSS at the end of version 5.0, and he is very powerful - although I don't know if he has the prototype of such power in the current version, but at least in the future he will have strong combat power that can turn into a dragon and summon Blood River.
And he and Iver are quite close.
Just like Kamen Rider's new form always has a protection period... teammates always have to be a little more handsome when they advance.
In the script performance in the game, the First Red Prime Minister "Pengbo Naqi" was defeated by the Iver who had just advanced to "Great Beast Master". Instead, the player just made a move on the side, and the key output for several stages was provided by "Iver".
——This First Red Prime Minister Pengbo Naqi was so handsome when the new form of "Iver" appeared.
As for the other black figure, he is the mentor of all necromancers in Star Antimony. He is also the final BOSS of the mainline copy "Millennial Vow Spirit Tower".
The best necromancer academy in Star Antimony is called "Spirit Tower", and it already existed during the empire. At that time, the black man was Headmaster of Spirit Tower.
So far, Spirit Tower still exists, and he is still Headmaster.
He had already given up his body, transformed himself into an undead spirit, and gained a certain sense of immortality.
Today's star antimony, alchemists and Demon Scholar are fighting fiercely, almost tearing apart the entire society, but this is just the appearance of the extraordinary world.
The "red phase" faction represented by Child of the Moon, the witch and Blood Mage, and the "black phase" faction headed by the necromancer and the prophet have already withdrawn from the center stage of the Stibium Kingdom.
But even so, the black faces of every generation so far are the Vice-Headmaster of Spirit Tower, and the red faces of every generation are the children of First Red Prime Minister. These two factions will hardly express their opinions now, but once they express their opinions, it will carry great weight... Both the nobles and King must respect their opinions very much.
Because they not only represent themselves, but also represent the two Fifth Level Transcendent groups behind them who have no intention of competing for power and whose control of the royal family is weak, as well as the two top powerhouses who are very low-key nowadays.
As the first secretary of Hong Xiang, Countess Emma is very likely - or will definitely become the next generation of Hong Xiang.
From this point of view, Countess Emma probably has a close relationship with Earl Leipzig, who tried every means to get Miss Aleister... There is a high probability that it is a "kinship relationship" on the level of Child of the Moon.
Either siblings or brother and sister.
But behind her stood one of the strongest men in the world. Although not as good as Eternal Pope who can be regarded as "Mediators of all wars", Pengbo Naqi is also a dangerous person who cannot be underestimated.
Such a big shot came to visit alone and with ill intentions... If she had gotten the Night Demon last night, Iver would have been wary of her.
"... I have to go see her once."
Iver made up his mind. "She is a real succubus after all, and she also has a part-time job with Child of the Moon."
Child of the Moon is also a profession that is good at mental manipulation. The combination of these two professions is too terrifying.
Rounding off, it's roughly equivalent to a Yuri rushing in.
Iver really doesn't want Scarlett Emma to come into contact with too many people.
It can even be said that... people who have been touched by her will be directly classified as "temporarily untrustworthy" by Iver.
It's hard not to have a strong combination of love and transcendence.
Transcender is extremely self-centered, extremely narcissistic, extremely selfish... and extremely confident at the same time.
Because whether it is Demon Avatar or a demon, the demon inside the body will burst out after death. At this time, even if he is resurrected as Child of the Moon, he will completely lose this profession, just like Bayard back then.
On the one hand, it's because the path has deviated, and on the other hand, because the demon in the body has disappeared, and he has become an empty shell.
And if the energy level of other paths is too low when converting to Child of the Moon... then after converting to Child of the Moon, it will be dyed into a solid color Path of Love and this characteristic will be erased. This is the exclusivity of Path of Love.
At least it takes Third Level's path to have some influence.
In other words, she must become Child of the Moon when Demon Scholar arrives at Third Level. Then pick up the Path of Transcendence that has declined, train it to Fifth Level and advance it to Demon Avatar - which is equivalent to practicing Path of Transcendence twice.
If you reach Sixth Level in this way, you can achieve a special achievement.
[Perfect Man].
It is also nicknamed the "perfect creature" by players.
It has the immortal vitality of Child of the Moon, the powerful power of Greater Phantom Demon, and Great Sin Imprint from Fallen Angel; at the same time, because it has a complete material body, it is not judged as a phantom that needs to leave Material Realm, and it can continue to upgrade because of its physical body. It's not like Child of the Moon, which has many weaknesses and taboos, nor is it like a demon that can be dispelled.
Version 2.0 had a BOSS who was perfect, and even caused a lot of trouble to Eternal Pope at that time.
Iver I don't know what level Path of Love of Countess Emma has reached now.
But even if she is only close to perfection, reaching the double Fifth Level... I am afraid it will be difficult to keep her even if Ligeia takes action.
This is the dual-path non-human Fifth Level who is in peak condition and is even making steady progress. It is completely different from the concept of "Bone Carver" who is also Fifth Level but will die of old age in a few months.
But listening to Iver's words, Lily did not agree immediately for the first time, but hesitated.
She looked at Iver with some worry. "I remember that Child of the Moon is very good at charming..."
She also experienced the Promotion Ritual of Child of the Moon, and saw with her own eyes the horror of Child of the Moon.
Not to mention, according to Iver, she is also a legendary succubus...
"Don't worry," Iver said briskly, "She can't abduct me."
... really?
Lily bit his lip and hesitated to speak.
"You are not allowed to follow."
Iver ordered, "You stay at the Silver and Tin Palace and protect Yulia. Go and tell Ligeia and ask her to go and bring Isabel back."
He ordered this because he was worried that Lily would be controlled by Emma.
At the same time, Emma has entered Avalon openly...Iver is not worried that Isabel is just shopping outside.
"Yes."
Lily nodded slightly, and finally chose to obey Iver's order.
